Team leader, experienced player, expert handler, Mr. personality, and resident blogger Addison Hoover graduated May 2nd 2009. Addison and family sacrificed his graduation weekend in order to attend 2009 Regionals, for which the team will always be grateful. Addison began his Ultimate career freshman year as a young enthusiastic Baseball player, and four years later had transitioned into a precision handler. Among Addison's greatest qualities were his accuracy, decision making abilities, and team orientation. It turns out that Ultimate runs in the Hoover gene line, as his father competed in College Nationals in the late 70's. In addition to being a leader of Ghetto Force, Addison was instrumental in the creation of Dayton's premier club team "Enigma" soon to enter its third season. Good luck Addison, you will be missed!
Mark Anderson, Mark "Sexy-Legs" Anderson, "The M.A. Show," "The Show," "Mr. Anderson," or perhaps most simply put hes one fast mother-F'er. Beneath his burly Al Borland beard, flannel shirts, and charitable personality lies one of the fastest, most agile, and competitive players in Ghetto's history. Mark graduated in May of 2009 after five years at the University of Dayton, four of which he filled with ultimate. Unfortunately, Mark was not able to compete in Regionals due to a sever sprained ankle suffered in the championship game against OSU at sectionals. Mark could have been an all region player and could have played at any school in the country and we are fortunate to have had him. He could chase down any disc, or defend any player. Mark you will always be "The Show."
Fall of 2009 brought a crop of new recruits, among the remaining recruits are:
Adam Tardio - "Adam, let me see that Tardio, that Tardio!"

Matt Giese - "Twink"
Billy Sturm - "The Bizarro Mark Latta"
Kevin Galli - "the Pep Band Slasher"
Pete Larkin-vero -
Ross Gueltzo -"Rick Ross," "Ross the Boss"
The Unhonorably discharged refers to our dear friends who deserted the team after promises of continued devotion-4, Rick-Roll, and Scull-Rick.

Nice to see the blog being updated again and appreciate the kind words....although I personally would say the "unhonorably discharged" section may be a bit rough, but that's just me. Also, curious....is UD going to qualify for this year's D-III National Championship? Don't we meet the 7,500 student criteria? It's being held close to me up in Wisco so I thought I'd come visit if so.
